Make Love the Jackie Chan Way
Word on the Hong Kong entertainment street is that Jackie Chan starred in a porn flick when he was young. Embarrassed Chan justifies his choice, saying "I had to do anything I could to make a living 31 years ago, but I don't think it's a big deal, even Marlon Brando used to be exposed in his movies."
Before you start freaking out, this isn't really a porno. It's a category III film called All in the Family. For the rest of us, this doesn't mean much; in conservative China, this is serious business. Category III denotes films with excessive violence, sex or any taboo-filled stories. In America these films would translate to an "R" or maybe even an "NC-17," but they rarely would reach our level of films rated "X." This isn't a seedy film shot in someone's house--it was produced by the favorite Raymond Chow and even has Sammo Hung and Dean Shek among the cast.
Intrigued? Chan does have a sex scene in the film, though there is not much nudity and to date, this is the only film of Chan's that has no fight or stunt sequences. Well, you gotta pay the bills somehow.
Liz and Valerie do love Asian movies, but will probably let this one go. Liz recommends The Accidental Spy instead. While there is no sex scene, this does have Jackie Chan running through the streets naked covering himself with an array of objects. It's not to be missed.
